Australia Dairy Alternatives Market Trends
Favorable government support to promote vegan culture
- The consumption of different types of plant-based dairy products across the Asia-Pacific region has been on the rise for the past few years due to the growing vegan population. There are even vegan exhibitions/trade shows and music festivals being conducted in several countries. Australia has the third-highest percentage of vegans per capita globally. As of 2022, there were 2.5 million vegans and vegetarians in the country.
- There are several vegan celebrities in Australia, particularly celebrity chefs, who have played a significant role in bringing plant-based lifestyles into mainstream dining and food culture. This trend has increased the inclusion of soy milk, especially in daily diets, as it replaces conventional milk, thus strengthening consumption patterns across the country.
- Consumers, especially those who are allergic to milk, prefer plant-based milk products. Cow milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies among children. As of 2022, in Australia, around one in 50 babies and children showed signs of an allergy to cow milk. Around 45% of consumers are actively trying to reduce the number of animal products they consume. Thus, the per capita consumption of plant-based milk in Australia increased by 7.6% during 2022-2023. .
- The per capita consumption of non-dairy butter is expected to increase by 1.30% during 2023-2024. The key motivations for consumers to use non-dairy butter are a concern for animals or sustainability, followed by a change in dietary habits. However, other dairy alternative product categories like yogurt, cheese, and ice cream are still at a nascent stage.
